Claims For Defects, Liability, Warranty - EFA 620 Original Operating Instructions

Residual hazards
As the dehiders are intended for industrial use on carcasses, there is a possibility of injury or, in case of gross
misuse, of fatal injury. Therefore, in case of misuse, the possibility of immediate death or death by blood loss
must be expected.
Consequently, always pay attention to the correct handling of the machine.
There is a risk of injury especially in the uncovered area of the sharp pair of blades moving in opposite
directions (EFA 620) or the single blade moving in a circular path (EFA 2000). Remain focused and act with
caution when working. Wear personal protective equipment.
The machine has no safety switch.
For this reason, always make sure to lay the machine down flat to prevent the switch from being accidentally
actuated and the machine from starting up.
If the compressed air connection is faulty and there is a high water content in the compressed air, a water jet
can escape at the connection point. Therefore, make sure that the hose connection is correct and that there is
as little water content as possible in the compressed air (empty the water separator regularly). The water
separator is not part of the machine but must be installed upstream.
